Twenty-six year old Texas singer/songwriter Ryan McBride knows first hand the lessons of hardship, loss, and loneliness. This Saginaw, Texas native has endured a rollercoaster of a ride the past 10 years in trying to launch his music career. Setbacks, family tragedies, and health issues have almost forced Ryan to end his dream of being a touring musician before it even began.
Luckily, Ryan's perserverance and strong willed up-bringing helped him weather the storm. In 2009, after recovering from back surgery and the death of his brother, Ryan went into the studio with a notebook full of songs and produced his debut album Quicksand. The album was met with rave reviews in the Dallas/Fort Worth music scene.
